It is the 70th anniversary of... - Harrison Hoyt becoming the first amateur driver to win the Hambletonian. He won it with Demon Hanover. - Bill O'Donnell was born on May 4. The "Magic Man" teamed with John Campbell to produce two dominant forces in the driver?s colony in the 1980s. $2 million Single Season Club The club for horses that have earned more than $2 million in a single season has 14 members ? 10 pacers and four trotters. Wiggle It Jiggleit is the last to do so in 2015 with earnings of $2,181,095 on the strength of a 22-3-0 record in 26 starts. Ray Remmen's Beach Towel got it started in 1990 with a $2.091 season. Well Said came the closest without reaching $2 million in 2009 with earnings of $1,982,654. Bill Robinson has done it with three different colts, all in the 1990s ? Precious Bunny in 1991, Presidential Ball in 1993 and Cams Card Shark in 1994. Linda Toscano is the only female trainer on the list ? Market Share (2012). Market Share, Gallo Blue Chip and Wiggle It Jiggleit are the only three to come back the next year and win $1 million plus. Muscle Hill and Somebeachsomewhere hold the single season records for their respective gaits. Two father-sons on this list ? Rocknroll Hanover in 2005 and Rock N Roll Heaven in 2010 and Somebeachsomewhere in 2008 and Captaintreacherous in 2013. In 2008, both SBSW and Deweycheatumnhowe hit $2 million. Rock N Roll Heaven and Wiggle It Jiggleit hit $2 million without winning a million-dollar race. Unbreakable record How's this for the most unbreakable record in standardbred racing: Stars Pride produced four straight Triple Crown winners. 1964 ? Ayres 30 20-4-3, $254,027 (lifetime). 1968 ? Nevele Pride 67 57-4-3, $873,238. 1969 ? Lindys Pride 47 25-9-4, $396,209. 1972 ? Super Bowl 51 38-8-2, $600,156. If that wasn't enough, how about siring at least one Horse of the Year in three successive decades?

1958 ? Emilys Pride 1967-68-69 ? Nevele Pride 1975 ? Savoir (Stars Pride was 28 at the time) Can this be right? Barberry Spur, a son of Triple Crown winner Niatross, won the 1986 Jug. That would be the last time a Triple Crown race was won by a horse sired by a Triple Crown winner on the pacing side. The 1983 Triple Crown winner Ralph Hanover wasn't effective as a stallion, the 1997 winner Western Dreamer is a gelding, the 1999 winner Blissfull Hall had some good ones but was not a player in the Grand Circuit regularly, the 2003 winner No Pan Intended also had some good ones, but not any Triple Crown race winners. While we're at it, with the Kentucky Derby right around the corner, only twice has the Kentucky Derby winner been sired by a Triple Crown winner. The 1935 Derby champ Omaha was a son of Gallant Fox, the 1930 Triple Crown winner. Omaha then became the only Triple Crown winning son of a Triple Crown winner after taking the Preakness and Belmont Stakes. The 1984 Derby champ Swale was a son of 1977 Triple Crown winner Seattle Slew. Did you know? 1. That a division was once decided by a half-vote and it came in the 1989 Hambletonian dead heat year involving the co-winner Park Avenue Joe. In 1989, the 3-year-old trotting colt ballot had 82.5 votes for Esquire Spur, 82 votes for Park Avenue Joe, 61.5 votes Valley Victory, 19 votes for Demilo Hanover, 7 votes for the other Hambletonian co-winner Probe and five votes for Shogun Lobell. 2. Jacqueline Ingrassia is the first female driver to make over $50,000 in a single race driving (NOT winning)? In the 1989 Woodrow Wilson at the Meadowlands, she was fourth with Southern Raider in a race with a $907,000 purse; meaning Southern Raider earned $72,560 for fourth money. Southern Raider was sent off at 7.60-1 and was beaten a combined 1 1/4 lengths. It should be noted that the winner was trained by Big Red ? Kelvin Harrison ? making this the richest race ever won, at that point, by a trainer from Down Under.

The Supreme Decision ? Devo Rides, Part 5 by Trey Nosrac Cotton ball clouds dotted the morning sky. My new friend, the expert technology developer, was sitting on the front porch swing as I drove my Prius down the gravel driveway of his boyhood family farm. For some reason, I had the feeling The Supremes ? 2018 he was wrestling with a decision about where to spend the last act of his life; the excitement of global tech power on ?Chris Christie, New Jersey and gambling.

I placed the coffee in my cupholder and said, ?Well, as far as I am concerned, the courts can do all the surveillance and wiretapping they want. I figure if you have nothing to hide, let them snoop all day.? He smiled, ?No, that?s FISA. PASPA is the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act, the federal ban against state-sponsored sports betting in all states except Nevada.? ?This is the big court ruling you keep talking about, the one that could affect harness racing?? ?Yes, it?s confusing as hell. I thought I knew the gist of the case but it?s complicated. The ramifications run deep. I was up until three this morning digging around and trying to make sense of everything, but I can?t say I was completely successful.? I waved my right hand to slow him down, ?Back up, back up. Help me out here. What exactly is being decided and by who?? ?The case is Christie vs. NCAA. More broadly, it?s New Jersey against the NCAA, NFL, and other professional leagues.

He said, ?Not bad, very insightful.? Then he poked my shoulder with his index finger and asked, ?Do you care where you place the bet?? I replied, ?No, I just want a good bet and will pay a little extra to whomever takes it and treats me right but the horse racing states will care and the racetracks will care.? ?Yes, but the big question is whether states can contain the money in the emerging world of technology. Trey, in my opinion, this state-based sports gambling legislation is important; it may be a wild ride, but short term. Eventually, the winner of this gambling scramble will be the business that gives you a seamless, solid wager anywhere, anytime. I?m betting it will be a mega-conglomerate with massive data and resources like an Amazon or Google.? I put on my turn signal for the exit that led to the hospital, and asked, ?If the Supremes say let it roll and it rains gambling, if states lose control, or if 50 states flood the market, what kind of umbrellas are good for individual sports like harness racing?? He reached into the back seat, grabbed his shoulder sack, and said, ?In my opinion, the future will need good gambling games. Horse racing could be one.? He opened the door and finished by saying, ?I?ll keep thinking, I have ideas, I?ll make a few calls. Supremes or no Supremes, the future is ahead.? He began to walk to the glass doors of the Hospital. I pushed the button and the passenger window went down. ?Hey, JT, here?s another hit they had.

So if conditions are right, people will bet their money. Terrace for every card A wise man would listen to the customer and try to incorporate those things the customer defines as what they It's great to see that Yonkers has had a resurgence in its need ? thus a win-win situation is formed. Now compare betting handle with a number of race pools hovering around that scenario to the harness racing business which is or about $100,000 and nightly handle in the million-dollar completely reversed and where the racetrack sets the range. I congratulate the horseman and management for all conditions and the customer gets no sayso. Handles they have done to make this possible. However, if Yonkers plummet, track attendance declines at 8-10 per cent a year wants to again become a true leader in this sport it needs to and the poor little racetrack cannot understand what is cater to all fans and not just off track and simulcast betting happening to their business and where the younger bettors outlets.

Here's a momentum and do the same. tip for you Yonkers and many other of the racetracks for that ? Jonathan Klee / Mineola, NY matter: The answer as to what the customers need in the way of change isn't in the Marketing office or the Director of Racing's office, it resides with the customer! There is little time if any, to give up the stubbornness and get sand out of your ears and LISTEN TO THE CUSTOMER. Yonkers here's a news flash: make significant changes now or start looking for a property buyer because once the casino license is approved across the river, customers will remember who fought for them and listened to them. In closing, I'll say one last thing about today's racing customer, there?s a multitude of other exciting options for them to choose and in our minds most racetracks are lumped together. Therefore, if they are turned off by one track, they are turned off to all. So if you think things that happen at one track ? say a 4-minute wait for the race to go off and all the time the clock is at zero ? doesn't affect all tracks in bettors? minds, think again. What you are hearing here is that the tracks need to police their own. ? David Perry / Dearborn, MI
